Michael Brook - An Inconvenient Truth Score Album (2006)

Humanity is sitting on a ticking time bomb. If the vast majority of the world's scientists are right, we have just ten years to avert a major catastrophe that could send our entire planet into a tail-spin of epic destruction involving extreme weather, floods, droughts, epidemics and killer heat waves beyond anything we have ever experienced.

If that sounds like a recipe for serious gloom and doom -- think again. From director Davis Guggenheim comes the Sundance Film Festival hit, AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH, which offers a passionate and inspirational look at one man's fervent crusade to halt global warming's deadly progress in its tracks by exposing the myths and misconceptions that surround it. That man is former Vice President Al Gore, who, in the wake of defeat in the 2000 election, re-set the course of his life to focus on a last-ditch, all-out effort to help save the planet from irrevocable change.

The ambient, evocative score was written by sonic innovator Michael Brook. In a career that spans three decades, Los Angeles-based composer-artist-producer Michael Brook's musical contributions have included the creation of the infinite guitar - played most famously by The Edge; productions for or with such luminaries as Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Brian Eno, and Daniel Lanois; and compositions for various films.
